I would swear to this vehicle, the most stylish and safe midsize SUV you can buy, very comfortable to drive in Off road and on road, it feels like driving a Caddy while Off roading, it has few downsides that you forget when driving them, driver side visor has no mirror, no dome light on ceiling at the front, almost no legroom on back seat, this vehicle is perfect for 2 people, fuel economy is not as bad as a Jeep, BUT once when you drive you'll love it, very solid, very attractive and very sturdy SUV to own, keeps the price high, owners rarely will sell if they know what this is. Normally people who sell they have no clue or they are just Tesla drivers. That's the bottom line.
